Switching the SE server on

The following hardware components must be switched on in this order:

1. Switch on the optional hardware components

>

Switch on the ETERNUS LT140 resp. ETERNUS LT40 S2 tape library as well as the ETERNUS DX100 S4 disk storage system using the On/Off switch at the front (see the "Additive Components" Operating Manual [4]).

>

Switch on any other connected hardware components.

The ETERNUS JX40 S2 disk storage system is switched on automatically on a Server Unit when the Server Unit is switched on.

2. Switch on the MU

The power-on indicator (item 11 resp. 8 in figure 16/17/18) lights up orange (POWER STAND-BY).

>

Switch on the rack console by pulling out and folding out the monitor, see "Rack console".

>

Press the On/Off switch on the MU (item 12 resp. 9 in figure 16/17/18).

The power-on indicator lights up green. The MU switches itself on, conducts a system test and starts the M2000 software. This takes a little time. Finally, on the rack console you see the login window for the Linux desktop of the local console.

>

Call the SE Manager, e.g. after logging in on the local console via the browser of the Linux desktop (in the “Computer” menu in the task bar) or via an administration PC (default), see the “Operation and Administration” manual [5].

You can also switch on the MU remotely via the iRMC of the MU, see the “Operation and Administration” manual [5].

3. Switch on the Server Unit

Before the Server Unit is switched on, the status indicator lights up orange.

>

Switch on the Server Unit by pressing the On/Off switch.

The power-on indicator lights up green. The Server Unit switches on, conducts a system test and starts X2000.

If automatic IPL is configured for BS2000, the BS2000 system (Native or as a VM2000 monitor system) is also started with the configured settings.

The controls and indicators of the Server Unit are described in the "Server Unit x86" Operating Manual [3].

Further optional Server Units are switched on in the same way.

4. Switch on the optional Application Units

Before an Application Unit is switched on, the status indicator lights up orange (POWER STAND-BY).

>

Switch on the Application Unit by pressing the On/Off switch.

The power-on indicator lights up green. The Application Unit switches on, conducts a system test and starts the operating system.

The controls, indicators and further on/off options for the AU are described in the "Additive Components" Operating Manual [4].

Further optional Application Units are switched on in the same way.
